Ah yes, I see that page now.
Just a suggestion. On the fmgcon.com/ main page, it would be helpful if there was a obvious specific link that was for the site registration and another obvious link for the event registration.
Perhaps my confusion was a result of my bit of brain injury I got a few years back. Before that when writing software and user interfaces I would have beta testers use it and ensured they had zero experience with the user interface or software operations before hand. As a developer you live the creation, what seems obvious to you is not so obvious to a complete newbie to the project.
I was looking for registration first, then and only then did it seem obvious to me to click the convention discussions link……as to discuss you have to register to the site! Yeah, maybe me being a bit too linear in thinking! I registered for the event but got no ‘user name’ in that process so was a bit perplexed.
